US-101 AC Digouts and Resurfacing Project (EA 2X730)

The US-101 AC Digouts and Resurfacing Project (EA 2X730) is a forecast project managed by Caltrans District 4 in the Bay Area/Oakland region. The scope of work involves the digouts of damaged asphalt concrete and subsequent resurfacing with new asphalt concrete on US-101 in San Jose, Santa Clara County. The project area extends from 0.5-mile north of the Bernal Road Undercrossing to the Coyote Creek Bridge, covering post miles R27.5 to 36.7. The primary objectives are to preserve the roadway and improve ride quality for the traveling public. All construction activities will be performed within the existing Caltrans right of way on the paved roadway, and any removed pavement striping or delineation will be replaced. The project is scheduled for the summer construction season, beginning in May 2026 and concluding by September. Required equipment for the project includes AC trucks, grinders, loaders, pavers, and rollers, with staging to occur in non-vegetated areas within the Caltrans right of way. This project is classified under NAICS code 237310 and has been filed as exempt under PRC 21084 and 14 CCR 15301 Class 1(c) for existing facilities, as no environmental impacts are anticipated. The primary point of contact is Juliane Smith, Senior Environmental Scientist.
